GPR Used to Locate Conduits in a Concrete Slab on Grade - Columbus, Ohio

Ground Penetrating Radar Systems was recently called by a local construction company to a project at Nationwide Children’s Hospital in Columbus, Ohio. Scope of work was to scan a concrete slab on grade locating and mapping out conduits before saw cutting to tie into an existing sanitary line. After scanning with GPR, there were several conduits that were marked out in the area of saw cutting that would have been struck if it had not been scanned. GPRS, LLC. was able to get to the job in a timely matter and mark out all the conduits on the surface with a depth. GPR is an accurate and effective way of locating conduits, rebar, and post tension cables in a concrete slab.

GPR Used to Scan for Conduits - Columbus, Ohio

Ground Penetrating Radar Systems was called by a local contractor to scan the floor of an existing building prior to the installation of new sanitary lines. The scope of this project was to determine the locations of conduits and/or shallow utilities so that the contractor could perform their planned saw-cutting. The contractor wanted to avoid any repair costs, or lost time on the project, and they knew that if they called GPRS, they would be able to saw-cut without any issues.

During the scan, we located, and marked out several conduits that were running in the area of the proposed trench, and the results of the scan were marked directly onto project surface.

GPR is an accurate and effective way to locate items such as conduits, rebar, and post tension cables in concrete slabs. Additionally, GPR is a great way to locate underground utility lines and other near-surface items.

Concrete Slab Scan Prior to Core Drilling - Westerville, OH

Ground Penetrating Radar Systems was called by a local contractor to a renovation project in Westerville, OH. The contractor was core drilling in order to install new electrical feeds near the columns of the building, and needed to know where they could safely core through the slab. The slab featured pan decking construction; this means that we will mark out the high and low areas and recommend that the contractor drill only in the high locations to avoid hitting a conduit in the low areas of the pan. GPRS, LLC. was able to use GPR equipment to accurately locate and mark the high and low portions of the pan decking, a structural beam, and conduits running across the floor. GPRS, LLC. was able to get to the job in a timely matter so the project could remain on schedule. GPR is an accurate and effective way of locating conduits, rebar, and post tension cables in a concrete slab.
